According to an embodiment of the present specification, provided is a method for transmitting a signal that allows a user equipment to cancel phase noise by a base station in an mmWave communication system. In this case, the method may include: generating a PTRS for estimating phase noise of a downlink signal; transmitting PTRS power boosting level information for the PTRS to the user equipment via downlink signaling; and transmitting the PTRS via downlink signaling based on the PTRS power boosting level information. In this case, the PTRS power boosting level information may be determined based on at least one of MCS level and PRB size.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for performing, by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) from a base station (BS); and performing phase tracking operation based on the PTRS, wherein a PTRS power boosting level of the PTRS is determined based on a number of Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) layers associated with the PTRS.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: receiving PTRS power boosting information indicating a power boosting on/off state of the PTRS.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the PTRS power boosting information is received via radio resource control (RRC) signaling.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the number of PDSCH layers is L, the PTRS power boosting level satisfies 10*log 2 (L).
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the number of PDSCH layers corresponds to a number of Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) ports associated with the PTRS.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the PTRS power boosting level is related to an energy per resource element (EPRE) ratio between the PTRS and a corresponding PDSCH.
7. A user equipment (UE), the UE comprising: a receiver; a transmitter; and a processor configured to control the receiver and the transmitter, wherein the processor is configured to: receive, through the receiver, a phase tracking reference signal (PTRS) from a base station (BS); and perform phase tracking operation based on the PTRS, wherein a PTRS power boosting level of the PTRS is determined based on a number of Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) layers associated with the PTRS.
8. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to receive, through the receiver, PTRS power boosting information indicating a power boosting on/off state of the PTRS.
9. The UE of claim 8 , wherein the PTRS power boosting information is received via through radio resource control (RRC) signaling.
10. The UE of claim 7 , wherein when the number of PDSCH layers is L, the PTRS power boosting level satisfies 10*log 2 (L).
11. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the number of PDSCH layers corresponds to a number of Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) ports associated with the PTRS.
12. The UE of claim 7 , wherein the PTRS power boosting level is related to an energy per resource element (EPRE) ratio between the PTRS and a corresponding PDSCH.
13. A non-transitory processor readable medium recorded thereon a program code for executing the method of claim 1 .
